oracular ramblings

I always have a dreadful time setting out to write, whether it’s writing a blog post (as you can see!), writing a paper, or writing an article. The only thing that seems to flow freely is pithy responses to mailing lists.

Given that, I was happy to find the following set of links, starting at the excellent Light Blue Touchpaper with How (not) to write an abstract, following a comment link to Microsoft’s Simon Peyton Jones delightfully pithy presentation about writing a paper, and finally ending up at a lovely collection of links put together by Mark Leone, and referred to at the end of spj’s presentation.
